Right, to control the PWM t.c.c. solenoid in the valve body. That's what the TransGo kit that he's going to install will take care of.

believe me if i had the money to rebuild that trans id do it (which is why i still have it) but coming up with 1600$ isnt happening (plus i lost my job a couple days ago) im really rushing to get this car done so i can get another job ASAP

also if money wasnt the issue id take that 1600 and get a t56
its not the original motor either

Uh-oh...."For Professional Use Only". Guess you'll be considered a pro when you're done.

Here's wishing you all the good luck with this project. You've had a lot of trouble with trans in that car. I have my fingers crossed that you will get it all sorted out now.
